Gong Bath and Pottery Wheel Experience

Join sound practitioner Malgorzata Kosmala and ceramic artist Mihaly Herczeg for an experience bringing together sound, stillness and the pleasure of making with clay, in a creative studio overlooking the Thames.With a 60-minute Gong Bath followed by two hours of guided pottery, this workshop invites you to slow down, explore your senses and create something of your own. A small group of just six participants ensures a welcoming atmosphere and personal guidance throughout.Begin with soundYour experience opens with an immersive Gong Bath led by Malgorzata. Resting on your mat, you will be bathed in multilayered overtones of the gong — from soft, lingering notes to deeper, resonant waves that gradually give way to silence.A gong bath is a passive, meditative experience where you simply lie down and receive. No water is involved.This sound journey created by Malgorzata invites you to let go, relax and step away from daily demands and the constant stream of thoughts, creating an opportunity to approach the creative process with greater presence and curiosity.After a short break, you will move to the pottery wheel to explore clay through touch, movement and making.Let your hands find the formAt your own wheel, Mihaly will guide you through the foundations of throwing: centring the clay, opening it and gently drawing up the walls.Mihaly creates bespoke ceramics for fine dining restaurants alongside his own sculptural work. His practice explores movement, balance and the possibilities of clay, and he brings that curiosity into his teaching.Through clear demonstrations and individual support, you will discover how small changes in pressure and touch affect the growing form — when to guide the clay and when to soften your hands.Both parts of the workshop invite you to explore at your own pace, notice what you feel and remain curious about the experience.No previous pottery or Gong Bath experience is needed. You do not need a finished design in mind, and there is no expectation of perfection.A finishing touch from the fine dining tableAfter the workshop, one piece you have made will be glazed and fired in Mihaly’s studio.It will be finished in the glaze he developed for Angelina restaurant, connecting your creation with his bespoke tableware for fine dining.Your finished piece will be available to collect once the drying, glazing and firing are complete. Your finished piece will usually be ready approximately two weeks after the workshop. Please contact Mihaly at that time to check it is ready and arrange collection. As with all handmade ceramics, occasional drying or firing faults can occur.Who is this workshop for?Complete beginners are welcome, as are those who have tried pottery before and would enjoy approaching it in a new way.Come on your own, share the experience with a friend or partner, or give someone time to explore their creativity.Come with curiosity. Discover what takes shape.
